I tried to write a poem
About my love for you
So I could tell you how I feel
But I wasn’t able to
I wanted you to know for sure
That I love you very much
And wanted words of poetry
Your heart somehow to touch
I wanted you to know that I
Adore you when you smile
And I always want to be with you
If only for awhile
I hoped my poem would convey
What a part of me you are
And no matter where I may be now
Thoughts of you are never far
My poem would have told you
Of the joy inside my heart
And how it’s always been that way
>From the day we had our start
But the poem that I hoped to write
Will forever be unread
And you will never know my thoughts
And the things I might have said
